  1. Canadian NCLEX

    ontnursec replied to CanadianNursens's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hi :) I just passed mine in Canada. I liked Saunders for content review, but it's dry, so I concentrated on areas I felt I needed to review. I used UWorld as well, and I will say the questions are...

  2. Nervous about NCLEX-PN

    ontnursec replied to FutureRN-GA's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I was in a similar situation. Graduated my BSN program in June and didn't write my exam until this November. I studied for about 5 weeks. I think using Saunders is great, as is doing questions every...

  3. suggestion please

    ontnursec replied to thejuramineni's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I agree with UWORLD but also add in Kaplan or Hurst for content

  4. So I just need to vent

    ontnursec replied to jennaroo's topic in General Students

    I think berating you for learning during down time, instead of chatting or gossiping with the nurses (like your instructor did) was a good move. Your instructor can think otherwise, and tell you so,...

  5. How hard is it to get into a Nursing School

    ontnursec replied to nataliared's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Agree, Canadian BScN programs mostly only go by high school grades. I have only heard about RPN programs requiring an entrance exam, at least in my area. There is more space for students direct from...

    ontnursec replied to crc2015's topic in General Students

  8. Calling all Canadian NCLEX takers!

    ontnursec replied to CanadianNurse15's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thank you, just waiting on results in the mail. I am in Ontario, and I've heard the CNO takes anywhere from 3-7 days to send results. The PVT gave me the good pop up, so I am cautiously optimistic....

  9. acceptable haircolor for nursing students?

    ontnursec replied to crownsk's topic in General Students

    During my last semester I had bright, fire engine red hair ombre to blond. No one complained about it. I have since changed it back to brown. I did this solely because I was concerned I may not obtain...

  11. Calling all Canadian NCLEX takers!

    ontnursec replied to CanadianNurse15's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hi there. Just wrote my NCLEX in Canada today :) I used Saunders and UWorld. I highly recommend UWorld for strategy and the rationales are great for content. Also FYI, the PVT works in

    ontnursec replied to edithfig's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It's not 100% so you won't be getting your results through it. It's a trick (the Pearson Vue Trick). Basically, you try to re-register for the exam through pearson, with an invalid card (don't use a...

  14. 75 Q, Good Pop Up

    ontnursec replied to ontnursec's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thank you so much! I wish we didn't have to wait for the mail to find out, but it looks like my BON is pretty quick sending results. I am cautiously optimistic right now

  15. 75 Q, Good Pop Up

    ontnursec posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hey guys, just wanted to decompress by making a post here. Just finished my NCLEX-RN. I got what feels like a ton of SATAs, no drag and drops. It was very challenging, constantly felt like I was...

  17. Went on interview, references requested yet no news in over 2 weeks??

    ontnursec replied to nurse1990's topic in Canada

    My advice is don't wait around. If you need a job keep applying. I interviewed in mid October and didn't get a call with an offer until November, about 3 weeks. It takes time. A call may come when you...

  18. Took my NCLEX RN today and shut off at 205??

    ontnursec replied to Shellx1992's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I do understand the stress and wanting to get feedback on your individual experience. I live in Canada and we don't get to take advantage of quick results. I will likely try the PVT, and lots of...

    ontnursec replied to luv17's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm in the same boat as you. I've had 1 interview with a HH agency. They asked classic interview questions (what was a conflict you experienced, and how did you handle it, etc), as well as giving...

  25. Decided to continue going back after giving birth

    ontnursec replied to allykimpton's topic in General Students

    I started nursing school when my youngest was 8 months old. It's tough, but with really good time management skills, it can be done! Best of luck to
